I am on my Second GC and its working ok at the moment, but probably because I have not used it much since I bought a Nokta Pinpointer some months back and it is now the one I use most, very well made, great quality, waterproof, nice tip protectors, it is a bit different to use the controls but is imo a better pin pointer and all for £40 or so less, topped off with a 2 year warranty, whats not too like.
